Almost all of us in this area are dependent on agriculture for our way of life. Please pray for our farmers today on the feast day of their patron saint, St. Isidore the Farmer.
We are giving away blessed packets of flower seeds (and a few packets of vegetable seeds) at our St. Ann's Masses this weekend. May these seeds and all the seeds planted by our local farmers grow abundantly through God's gifts of rain and favorable weather.

Grant, O Lord, that through the intercession of Saint Isidore, the farmer, we may follow his example of patience and humility, and so walk faithfully in his footsteps so that, in the evening of life, we may be able to present to You an abundant harvest of good fruits, You who live and reign forever and ever.
Amen.
Amen.
